Family: Family teams require someone 16 or younger on race day to be part of the team. We ask that if you are an experienced racer that you do not use the family team division.
Teams will first be ranked by point value for the checkpoints visited then by time.
Checkpoints(CPs) may be visited in any order unless otherwise noted in the event instructions.
In order to receive credit for visiting a checkpoint, QR code must be scanned. A backup passport will be provided in the event of a technology failure.
There is a 4 hour time limit. Any team/solo arriving late will receive a penalty per minute late. This will be indicated on the race instructions and covered at the race briefing.

Race management may modify these rules. We will inform all racers of any rule changes at the pre-race meeting.
"There's nothing quite like the thrill of working together as a team, looking at the clues and figuring out where we should go next and if we have any other stops along the way. It's a fantastic blend of fun, excitement, and teamwork that brings everyone closer together!"
We have designed this event for all levels of fitness and ability levels. Some racers will run to reach far out checkpoints. Others will focus on walking to the nearest checkpoints within 0.5 miles of the Start/Finish.
No! In fact, if you think you may even do it solo or with just one person, we encourage you to register sooner than later. This allows our staff to get an idea on the number of teams. We can always add team members up until race morning and change divisions/team names up until Thursday before the race.
We allow for the team captain to register everyone OR Each team member can register using their own account information on RunSignup if they desire.
To register individually, the team captain registers first creating a team under the desired division. The team captain assigns as password. Other team members can then register and select "Existing Team", find their team, and enter the password. This allows team members to use their own account and billing methods.
Great! Simply create two teams with the same name but with a #1 and #2 at the end. If you wish, you can still use unique names. Simply travel together all day. In fact, we have accounted for this by not including anything in the rules about teams working together. Each team will be ranked separately in results.
No, you travel with all your team members. Sometimes there is a special navigation challenge, in which you can decide to continue on or split to cover more ground quickly.
We have designed this race to be somewhat old school with a splash of tech. Your phone can be used for picture taking and scanning QR codes. However, it is against the rules to use it for navigation. In fact, it really wouldn't help you a whole lot.
Our race is designed for all levels of navigators. In the rare event that you get lost, you can rest assured we will come find you. We will even help you get back on track for a small points penalty.
